EMERGENCY DECLARATIONS -- Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding a declaration of disaster emergency by the Governor.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to revise provisions regarding a declaration of disaster emergency by the Governor. It specifies that any executive orders, proclamations, or rules issued by the Governor during a declared state of disaster emergency must be essential to protect life or property and narrowly tailored, without placing unnecessary restrictions on the ability for a person or persons to work, provide for their families, or contribute to the state's economy. The bill also limits the duration of a state of disaster emergency declaration to 30 days, unless the Governor finds it should be continued for another 30 days or any part thereof, and allows the legislature to terminate a state of disaster emergency at any time.
